Crab salad with croutons

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 30 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make crab salad with croutons? Prepare your food. Boil the eggs first and cool. Crab sticks, if they were frozen, defrost. Drain the corn. You can take ready-made crackers or make them yourself. Like mayonnaise, homemade is perfect.

2. STEP 2

   

   Remove the sticks from their wrappers. The film in which each crab stick is wrapped is sometimes difficult to remove. To make the process easier, hold the chopsticks over the steam for 1-3 seconds. Cut them into slices about 1cm thick.

3. STEP 3

   

   Wash the cucumbers and cut off the ends. First cut them lengthwise into plates, then crosswise into strips.

4. STEP 4

   

   Also cut the peeled eggs into strips. The salad will look beautiful and neat if you cut all the ingredients into pieces of the same size and shape (for example, into strips). Based on the shape and size of the crackers.

5. STEP 5

   

   Place all the chopped ingredients in a bowl, add corn and croutons. If you prepare the salad in advance, add the croutons just before serving.

6. STEP 6

   

   Stir the salad. Season it with mayonnaise. Add salt if necessary.

7. STEP 7

   

   Serve it to the table immediately so that the crackers do not soften. Bon appetit!

I prepared crab salad with croutons for mashed potatoes, bought croutons with the taste of pickled cucumbers :) It turned out to be a very tasty fresh salad, which was immediately eaten at dinner, and everyone wanted more. 😊 Next time I’ll cook more, thanks for the recipe!

For children's birthdays I always make a salad with crab sticks. This time, for a change, I prepared crab salad with croutons. The kids loved this option even more! I always take crab sticks chilled, they are juicier and tastier. I took five large eggs. It is better to take sweet corn for salad. My crackers are made from baguette, they are more tender. On the other hand, those that come in cubes do not get soggy from mayonnaise longer. You can always choose crackers to suit your taste. I chopped eggs, sticks and cucumber, added corn and seasoned with mayonnaise with lemon juice. Place the crackers on top and stir before serving. It seems that the usual salad has acquired an interesting crunchy note! Tasty and unusual!
